Hi, I'm Engr. Biplop Giri
ECE graduate with 2+ years shipping production AI — from real-time computer vision on embedded hardware to cloud-deployed search systems serving thousands of queries. Currently a Research Engineer at CAILIC (ACEM) and Co-Founder of Lakhey Labs.
About
Building AI systems that ship to production
I'm an Electronics and Communication Engineering graduate from ACEM (Tribhuvan University) with a passion for AI that actually works in the real world — not just in notebooks.
Over the last 2+ years I've built production systems across the stack — from computer vision models running on embedded hardware to cloud APIs serving thousands of requests. Equally comfortable in Python, JavaScript, Docker, or an Arduino IDE.
Currently a Research Engineer at CAILIC, ACEM, leading the development of an automated human-wildlife conflict mitigation system to protect crops in rural villages using real-time computer vision and active deterrent devices. Also co-founded Lakhey Labs, a 3D-printing startup, where I engineered the automated operational workflows, ERP, and backend infrastructure.
